IMPROVEMENT IN CURTAIN-FIXTURES.

Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 127,565,1lated J une 4, 1872.

To all twhom it may concern:

Be it known that I, DANIEL G. CHASE, o Boston, in the county of Suffolk and State of Massachusetts, have invented certain Improvements in Curtain-Fixtures, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanying drawing making a part of this specification, in Which- Figure l is a perspective view of my invention. Fig. 2 is a horizontal sectional view. Fig. 3 is a view of the cylindrical friction- -spring detached from the roller.

The object of my invention is to provide a cheap and convenient roller for curtains, which Will have the requisite friction to prevent the curtain from running down; and it consists in a stationary friction-spring so arranged that the friction is applied inside the roller, While the spring itself furnishes a bearing for the roller.y In the drawing, A represents the roller, and a a the sockets in which it turns. B is a statonary friction-spring, introduced into one end of roller and extending outward, thus making a support for the roller upon its bracket or. socket. The spring is slotted at b, and the slot is made to tit snugly over the pin or tongue c in such a manner that the spring cannot turn with the roller.

Claims.

ner that the spring cannot turn with the roller.
